MAC Huggable Lipcolour Reviews, Photos, Swatches (Part 3)

These are the last four shades of the new MAC Huggable Lipcolour($20.00 for 0.11 oz.) formula! It feels good to be done. There is a lot of consistency across the shades, particularly in terms of texture, wear, and feel, though there was more variance in level of color coverage–some where semi-sheer while others were semi-opaque. I found the formula was a mix of MAC’s Cremesheen lipsticks and Mineralize Rich lipsticks. The new formula is somewhat hydrating with semi-sheer to semi-opaque color, lasts between two and five hours (lighter colors are quicker to disappear, deeper shades last longest), and have a consistency that’s a bit stiff. The texture will tug and pull at the lip if you immediately try to glide it across lips; instead, I recommend pressing and holding for about five seconds, than gliding the bullet across lips as the warmth of your lip will help melt the color. It does feel clingy–huggable–when worn, which is noticeable throughout the wear, but it is not drying. Please see part one for a more in-depth review on the formula overall (and part two for four more shades).

These are supposed to launch online on December 26th. The press release lists an in-store release date of January 2nd, though I would suggest checking with local counters/stores to ensure it’s not also releasing alongside Magnetic Nude (on December 26th). There are twelve shades available, with two shades being released everywhere but Asia (Rich Marron and Rusty), and two shades released exclusive to Asia (Extra Sweet and Sweet Creation).

The colors in this collection are so amazing. And, thanks to you, I now know what the formula is like. But anytime I see this many colors released all at once (think back to Urban Decay Revolution lipstick) I am absolutely overwhelmed. Anyone better than me at sorting out such decisions? How do you do it? I’m likely to skip these all together because there are too many amazing choices….

Loving these posts! I can’t wait for these to launch in the UK. I hope they are as long lasting as they sound – although the application sounds intriguing… Love MAC products so will be keen to try them.

All of them look great on you! They are very appealing shades. I was sort of surprised that your ratings on the various shades differed somewhat from shade to shade especially on lastingness since they are from the same brand and product line.Allison Recently Posted: What’s in My December 2013 Celebration ipsy Bag?

I picked up Red Necessity yesterday and I am totally IN LOVE and plan to pick up a back up while these are still available. I love the formulation and love the colour. MAC would be smart to make at least a few of these permanent.
